Bare majorities

Today, I heard the head of the People for the American Way telling us that he opposes the Republicans bald-faced attempt to force their agenda on the American people by bare majority. He cited two Circuit Courts (neither of which was the 9th), failed to note Roe v. Wade except to imply he was in favor of it, and did not mention the New Deal or the Switch in Time that Saved Nine. He was arguing in favor of keeping the filibuster rules intact in opposition to the Senate Republicans, but only when they are applied by Democrats.

Personally, I not only agree with keeping the filibuster rules (I think Sen. Hatch has been extremely two-faced on this issue), but I think super majorities should be required for more of the government's business.
